And it is these needs which call for the support of the Riegle amendment if it is introduced. I think we should recognize that the "great American dream" is still just thata dreamfor many of our own citizens. It should be evident to all. as it is to me. that our first obligation is to these who are closest at hand. our domestic refugees. living in economic and social deprivation. Although we certainly should not have an isolationistic spirit. yet it remains that it would be equally wrong or worse to give to others that which we refuse to give to our own. My record will show that I have consistently labored for the rights of all minorities.
